According to ECI, its SR9700 series of carrier ethernet switch routers enables operators to transform their metro infrastructure to support the latest ethernet and IP services; and was specifically designed to meet the requirements of metropolitan core networks where density, performance and quality-of-service are critical.

Rafi Maor, president and CEO of ECI Telecom, said: This win reinforces our decision to bring to market the first carrier ethernet product line designed with a transport mind-set. ECI is looking forward to partnering with ELRO as they transition to next-generation networks, and offer increasingly advanced services.
